Jeffrey Farrow protects businesses through their most consequential legal challenges, litigating trade secret disputes, defending against fraud claims, and advising on risk even before conflicts arise. As Chair of the firm’s Litigation Department and a member of the Executive Committee, he brings both courtroom authority and strategic foresight to every engagement.

A veteran trial lawyer with a track record of decisive wins in state and federal courts nationwide, Jeff—who also serves as the firm’s Trade Secrets, Financial Fraud & Executive Disputes Chair—represents clients in high-stakes matters involving executive departures, unfair competition, and financial misconduct, among others. His litigation work spans industries including insurance, technology and intellectual property, and manufacturing. Jeff is particularly sought after by insurance brokerages and agencies navigating ownership transitions, restrictive covenant enforcement, and book-of-business disputes.

Equally skilled in appellate advocacy, Jeff has secured victories that have shaped California law on issues such as director’s liability and employment protections. His tenacity in both trial and appellate courts has earned him a reputation as one of the firm’s go-to litigators for cases that carry existential operational, reputational, or financial risk.

Clients rely on Jeff for more than litigation—they trust him to anticipate disputes before they escalate and to advise on governance decisions that protect the future of their businesses.
